If the bulk of the size of the original model was because if the can to keep the noise down, will the slim one being 30% smaller make it alot louder as a result?

They've made a lot of process improvements internally, even with the current form factor. A lot of the internal stuff has been shrinking.

Also, it seems like a bad business practice to announce this a mere month in advance.

I think a month is a relatively long time. You don't want to see a sales drop because people are waiting for the slim model.  

I looked at Xbox, and it's more common to release the same week as announced than it is to be more than a month in advance.

Xbox 360 S: announced 4 days before released in the US

Xbox 360 E: announced the same day as released in the US

Xbox One S: announced June 13th, released August 2nd

Xbox One S All Digital: Announced 3 weeks before launch

Yeah, but I still think there will be another massive internal changes for a new model next year, together with the Pro.

I guess we do should consider it the Slim and if my prediction is right that would be a Super Slim case, the thing is, a Slim model not being cheaper... just doesn't sound right to me, even more as the internal changes have come before it and not with it.
